What's up from the bench today?

I finally got out to the garage today, too dang sore to do much else
, and decided to load up some 153 gr ATips over some Staball 6.5 that I had loaded up last year and it had shown promise. Hoping it'll still be in the ballpark so I can bring it in and tweak it to a good shooting load.

Git'er done!
Tomorrow is my day to load some .223 cases with 69gr SMK over 23 gr of WC844. If the wind will cooperate I'll try these at 200 yards in my son's rifle. If not I'll have them ready for the next windless evening after work. I have 2 weeks to get this done before his birthday and the upcoming week's weather forecast shows a couple of promising days.

Yes sir! Some decent days ahead looks like, albeit hot!

Loaded up some more 153 gr ATips for the 6.5 CM yesterday. Same load as last time out, same seating depth for 10 rounds, and .003" closer in for 10 more rounds. Just trying to see if I'm missing anything between the two OALs that produced the best groups. Now for some dry weather.

Saturday looks good to unload a few if you’re not chasing water eggs!

I'm going to try to get out some Friday. I've got some CCI green label .22 ammo to try in the CZ as well.
